The Earthshaker Cannon is the mother of all cannons (in comparison to other weaponry commonly fielded in the Imperial Guard), the sheer range on this is so long that it can bombard the rear of the enemy camp without having to be anywhere near them. It is also exceptionally powerful, generating a large blast radius to damage many units with one shot, especially if the enemy is gathered together in one place. Though not quite as strong as the Demolisher Cannon, it remains a potent weapon.

The Earthshaker is often mounted on a vehicle known as the Basilisk. The Basilisk is also equipped with a hull mounted Heavy Bolter for attacking troops that get to close to its position.
